It's probably more common than you think.

Can't tell (don't really know) the details, but I was told a story first
hand about someone who went in to the computer room and asked "what are
those flashing red lights?"

Cue massive panic as ops suddenly realised that (a) it was the main
billing server with terabytes of critical information and (b) the two
flashing lights meant their terribly expensive raid-6 disk array was now
running in raid-0!

Cheers,
